The most I've spent on a dress so far is Bambi's new ON that's coming in a week or two. It was a little over 70....but I got a $50 gift card to the store for $25 a few months back...so it was like just paying the 20 now...LOL what dh doesn't know won't hurt right 
Normally for a dress I spend 15 to 20 but really have heartburn when sellers are charging that much and adding on shipping. I hate paying for shipping! Sounds silly but I'd rather you sell me a dress for 20 that you would have sold for 18 and then add on the 2 dollars that you're going to pay to ship it. Make sense? I don't want to know about shipping...to me it's very tacky to charge shipping when you can just roll it into the price and say free shipping. To me it's customer service I appreciate much more!!!! So when a store sends me a free shipping code I have a hard time passing it up. It's just good customer service and that's so hard to find now-a-days. Just my two cents anyway  |
I like getting those gift certificates like that. In our area they have Radio Auctions, you can buy gift certificates for area stores. Usually you can buy them for $10 -$20 under what they are worth so it's like getting 20% off or something!
I agree about the shipping. LOL I hate paying it too but I look at it as it would cost me more than that to drive to town! I live so far out in the boonies. The closest town is a little farm town and there's not many stores here. .. no pet places. We did get a Dollar General store a couple years ago though!
...and I agree that good customer service is hard to find too!
